Chapter 409

409 It Is?

Not long after, in the living room of the bungalow at the Li family’s house complex.

Li Mo stroked his short beard, thinking hard until his brow furrowed.

“Hemmh, so a Er isn’t a real mystical Vermilion bird?”

Crown Prince placed his teacup on the saucer.

The night was getting late, but all could not end the day before all the puzzles were solved.

Luo Xiang looked at the second floor where their room was. He saw how Bai Ying’s fire circle during his mind connected with A Er, had burned his clothes, due to the sheer pressure of the force, for a moment, the young man felt a jolt in the memory shown by a Er and lost control, and now, that young man was soaking himself in a cold bath and wanted to be alone for a while. Luo Xiang was worried about him, but, he has to face it on his own now.

Chen Ming joined in on the conversation.

“According to Xiao Ying’s story, San Hong Jie felt very envious of Xiao Hong because he was the one who received the divine message and was awarded the bloodstone to become the protector of the Red Bird Mountain. In fact, San Hong Jie and others who had cultivated for quite a long time, much longer than Xiao Hong, the young bird who just came to his senses, and instantly became the Vermilion mystical bird, of course, who wouldn’t envy him.”

Li Mo nodded.

.....

“Hem, divine messages and bloodstones must be obtained by himself, through his own efforts, Xiao Hong is not offered bloodstones directly, who will offer them? Gods will not interfere in such matters, many processes are required for mystical beings to be able to obtain divine grace, so, it is all because of Xiao Hong’s own efforts that he was able to get that opportunity”

Luo Xiang nodded.

“That’s true, but, all living beings must have envy and jealousy in their hearts, uncle, because the red birds are mystical creatures that have gained consciousness, all of them really want the stone”

Chen Ming pursed his lips,

“Hmm, but take advantage of kindness Xiao Hong, that was a very disgraceful act, San Hong Jie might have taken what didn’t belong to her, so the body she made from the bloodstone that wasn’t her’s was imperfect, she could lose the bloodstone from time to time, just like what happened then,” continued Chen Ming.

“That’s true, but, didn’t a Er say who took the bloodstone from her? How could she lose the stone from his body so easily,” asked Li Mo.

The Crown Prince raised his tea again, blew out the hot smoke from its surface and took a slow sip.

“Ying Ying said, a Er admitted that she had been raped by someone that she didn’t know, when her body felt all the urges of lust, the bloodstone came out of her body without uncontrollably.”

Chen Ming turned his head.

“But, it’s really weird, isn’t it? How could she not know who rape her, and, A Er has a very strong internal power, there is no way anyone can rape her and moreover make her helpless to take the most important thing inside her body”

Li Mo nodded. Chen Ming’s words really make sense, it also made the Crown Prince who had actually thought about it agree with him.

“Hemh, that girl, may have been hiding something very important from us, but why did she do it?”

.......

Klekk.

The door was opened from the outside.

Two maids, who had just finished helping Bai Ying with his clothes lowered their bodies and excused themselves when they saw the Crown Prince enter through the door. The young man slowly approached and sat beside Bai Ying who had just finished and sat on the edge of his bed.

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

“What about your hands?”

Luo Xiang grabbed Bai Ying’s hand which was slightly reddened by the fire from A Er, as the two had connected. Gently, he spread the cold oil he had brought from outside onto the young man’s palm.

It felt quite comfortable, instantly the coldness made Bai Ying’s palms, which still felt so hot, even though he had been soaked in the bath for a long time, now, became cool and comfortable.

Luo Xiang smiled, he gently massaged Bai Ying’s palms, although his hands were quite big and muscular he was very careful to hold his little concubine’s soft hands.

“You’ve worked hard enough Ying, brother Xiang Xiang is proud of you”

Bai Ying smiled, His Majesty’s words just now is everything he want to hear, he was no longer the weak and useless Bai Ying he used to be, it felt very strange, in an instant, he’s like being two very different people.

“Does it feel good?” Luo Xiang asked, while gently massaging the young man’s hand.

Bai Ying nodded.

“Yes, Your Majesty, it feels very good, before it was very hot and throbbing, but now it is much better, thank you, Your Majesty.” The young man lowered his head to Luo Xiang’s shoulder.

The young man smiled, caressed Bai Ying’s forehead and kissed him gently.

“Chup”

“You’re welcome, my Ying Ying”

Bai Ying held the Crown Prince’s hand that holds his hand, for a moment looked at those big and sturdy palms, the palms that had always protected him, sheltering him whenever he was always in trouble. Until, his tears fell.

Luo Xiang frowned seeing the tears on the young man’s soft cheeks, he must be too emotional because seeing the memories of A Er’s past event made his heartache.

“Heh, this kid” Luo Xiang held Bai Ying’s cheek lifting the child’s head to look at him.

“Why are you crying?”

Bai Ying’s sobbing, he wiped his tears that couldn’t stop flowing.

“Ems, Your Highness, San Hong Jie and Xiao Hong, I am deeply moved to feel their deep love. Ying could feel how aching A Er’s heart was and how she’s deep regretted the events of those twenty years, and the fact that she missed Xiao Hong so much and didn’t know where he was, made her chest ache so much for these twenty years, that longing. , it really hurts.”

Luo Xiang smiled. He pulled the boy’s head in his arms.

“That’s why Ying Ying feels so sad? Did you think what if that happened to us?”

Bai Ying tried to stop his tears, although it was very difficult.

“Ems, yeah, it’s already so sad to think about what a Er is feeling, then, can Ying endure the pain like her? Longing for twenty years, can’t see each other at all. Ever since the bloodstone disappeared from her, a Er who got her strength by borrowing the bloodstone couldn’t communicate with Xiao Hong, she doesn’t even know if he’s still alive or not.”

Luo Xiang stroked Bai Ying’s back gently. No matter how strong the King of Nature is now in his arms, he is still a young child who has just grown up with many difficulties that he kept facing, he is a strong and great kid, but, he must admit, he is still a child.

“Why are you bothered to think about something that won’t happen, we’ve gone through a lot to get here, isn’t that enough? Xiao Hong and San Hong Jie just had bad luck, at the most inopportune times. But the two will be able to meet soon, Bei Yau and Su Lang are picking up the bird at Old Man Lo’s house.”

Bai Ying pursed his lips, he clenched his small fists in front of the Crown Prince’s chest.

“Why is Ying so stupid and not realizing that Xiao Hong is the real Vermilion bird that we’re looking for, Ying did feel a tremendous energy pressure but thought it was because Xiao Hong said that he’s cultivated for ten years before he was injured.”

Luo Xiang let go of his embrace and saw Bai Ying’s face from a very close distance, and hugged the young man tightly.

“Um, my Ying Ying, at least we can find out who the vermilion bird really is, I hope that he as the owner of the bloodstone can actually feel where the stone is, and take back what he’s”

Bai Ying let go of his embrace, wiping his tears seeing The Crown Prince with a pair of big and teary eyes.

“Ems Your Highness, then, can Xiao Hong return to being a mystical Vermilion bird? After what happened to him all this time, and after the stone had disappeared from him?” the young man thought very hard, frowning deeply.

“Don’t know that, but uncle Li said, everything is possible for that bird since he’s the rightful owner of the bloodstone”

“But Servant is very curious, how can Xiao Hong take out his bloodstone so easily? Whereas old man Er Wang must desperately take it from Ying er”

The Crown Prince thought that too, it was very unlikely that it could happen if the bloodstone that had been deposited in the owner’s body could be taken out just like that, then, what exactly happened?

“Hem yeah, could it be that San Hong Jie was lying? If she doesn’t get the stone properly, she, might force Xiao Hong to give it to her even if it cost him his life to get it out.”

Bai Ying’s eyes widened at the Crown Prince’s words, he held the man’s hand.

“Your Majesty, is that even possible? B-but, the feelings that Ying feels in San Hong Jie’s heart, it’s very real.”
